I wasn't always a great fan of Bob, not supporting some of his political and philosophical views, he also went through a period during the 1980's when he was thought smarmy and superficial.
Notwithstanding those presentiments, this is an abject lesson in stand-up; using his audience as bait he soliloquises eloquently about mirrored ceilings for sex, mistakenly laid (sic) on the floor causing slightly less of an aphrodisiac impact, exchanges with the likes of Mandy Smith, referring to age creeping up on her, an oblique reference to her Rolling Stones partner and Stephen Fry, as inimitable and articulate as ever augmenting and enhancing the show.
So sad, so many participants, including Bob himself, of course, are no longer with us. We must learn the lesson, humour and wit are part and parcel of our national heritage and try to perpetuate the rich legacy shown here.
